Covering Staircase Windows
Windows in your staircase offer exceptional views and abundant natural light, but due to their unique location, they can be challenging to cover. The Shelly’s Interior Concepts team shares your options from Hunter Douglas, as well as what factors you should consider when choosing yours.
Privacy
Privacy is hands down one of the most important reasons to have window coverings in your home. What your windows face is an essential consideration; are they overlooking your backyard or directly facing the street? The answer dramatically changes the covering requirements for your windows. We love top-down/bottom-up shades, especially for large staircase windows, because they have unmatched light control and privacy versatility. Vignette® Roman Shades are a great option to add subtle elegance to the space.
Amount of Direct Sunlight
The amount of direct sunlight that enters through your staircase windows is directly related to the direction they face. South-facing windows get the most sunlight throughout the day, making your home quite warm in the summer months. Duette® Cellular Shades are the perfect window treatment for south-facing windows because they have a unique interior construction that traps air to provide superior insulation at the window.
Available Space
Not all staircases or windows are spacious. In these instances, you need a window treatment that will provide the light control and privacy you need without taking up much space. Roller shades to the rescue! Designer Roller Shades fit neatly within the window frame and nearly disappear into their headrail when fully raised. They offer one of the industry’s smallest light gaps and smooth operation in several opacities. Consider Sonnette® Roller Shades to enjoy the space-saving design of a roller shade and the insulation of a cellular shade.
Enjoy Your View
Window treatments aren’t only for keeping light and the looks of nosy neighbors out of your home. They’re also meant to enhance your view of the outdoors. Sheer shades do a spectacular job of maintaining your privacy and preventing UV rays from damaging your home’s interior without eliminating your view of the outdoors. Pirouette® Sheer Shades allow you to enjoy the view from your staircase without sacrificing your privacy. If sheer shades don’t fit your home’s aesthetic, Designer Solar Shades are another great option. They share the same construction as Designer Roller Shades but are made to cut glare and heat more than to block light. You can choose from five openness factors and various eco-conscious fabrics made using reclaimed shoreline plastic products.
